D C G
Wake up Maggie I think I've got something to say to you
D C G
It's late September and I really should be back at school
C G C D
I know I keep you amused, but I feel I'm being used
[Chorus]
Am Bm Am D
Oh Maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
Am D Am D
You led me away from home just to save you from being alone
Am D G
You stole my heart, and that's what really hurts
[Verse]
D C G
The morning sun when it's in your face really shows your age
D C G
But that don't worry me none, in my eyes you're everything
C G C D
I laughed at all your jokes, my love you didn't need to coax
[Chorus]
Am Bm Am D
Oh Maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
Am D Am D
You led me away from home just to save you from being alone
Am D G
You stole my soul that's a pain I can do without
[Verse]
D C G
All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand
D C
But you turned into a lover and mother
G
what a lover you wore me out
C G
All you did was wreck my bed,
C D
and in the morning kick me in the head
[Chorus]
Am Bm Am D
Oh Maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
Am D Am D
You led me away from home, 'cause you didn't want to be alone
Am D G
You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried
[Solo 1]
Am D G C
Am C G G
[Verse]
D C G
I suppose I should collect my books and get back to school
D C G
Or steal my daddy's cue make a living out of playing pool
C G C D
Or find myself a rock and roll band, that needs a helping hand
[Chorus]
Am Bm Am D
Oh Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face
Am D
You made a first class fool out of me,
Am D
but I'm as blind as a fool can be
Am D G
You stole my heart but I love you anyway
